Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS NOI WASO 2270100008
The Engineering Studies of Historic Truss Performance is a grant opportunity provided by the Heritage Documentation Programs, under the Historic American Engineering Record. This multi-year initiative, funded by the Federal Highways Administration, focuses on the engineering analysis of historic covered bridges, specifically examining the performance of a classic Howe truss with cast iron nodes.
The project involves conducting detailed engineering studies that require disassembling, moving, and reassembling the truss in a laboratory setting due to the complexities of field studies on operational structures. The process includes shoring the truss, loosening vertical members, installing instrumentation, adjusting stress levels, and applying live loads to observe behavior under load.
The data gathered from these studies will be essential for refining analytical models related to Howe trusses. The final report generated will enhance existing documentation, which includes measured drawings and historical reports and will provide practical insights into the modeling, behavior, and design of Howe truss bridges. The findings are intended to benefit the approximately 140 existing Howe trusses and inform the design of future covered bridges.Apply for NPS NOI WASO 2270100008
